Keep your rugs looking beautiful for generations with these expert tips from our team.
Schedule a Professional CleaningWith proper care a good quality rug will require little maintenance and last a lifetime. Here's what our experts recommend.
Regular vacuuming ensures dirt and dust stays out of the pile. On rugs with fringe, avoid using the beater bar on the fringe portion — it causes damage over time.
Harsh chemicals can pull stains out but often alter rug colors and interact with wool dyes. Worse — chemical cleaners set stains permanently, making them nearly impossible to remove afterward.
A good quality wool rug needs professional cleaning every 3–5 years to stay properly dusted, prevent cracking, and keep the wool bright and vibrant. High-traffic areas may need it more often.
In new wool rugs, sprouting is completely normal. Simply snip them — don't pull. After the first professional washing all sprouts will come up and the issue resolves itself.
Rotating your rug every 6–12 months ensures even wear and sun exposure across the entire surface, preventing one side from fading or wearing down faster than the other.
A proper rug pad prevents slipping, reduces wear on the rug's backing, and adds cushioning. We carry high-quality pads custom-cut to your exact size at both Pittsburgh locations.
